Ronaldo vs Messi on El Clásico, April 16 2011

It is always interesting to follow the competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid or what is commonly called El Clásico whether in the Spanish La Liga or in the UEFA Champions League.


It seems Barca is more dominant than Madrid this season, just take a look to the table, Barcelona leads the league by eight points over Madrid with seven matches left, besides that they have defeated Madrid in Nou Camp for 5-0 in November.



So who will win in the next El Clásico next saturday? I guess one of the answers is depends on these two incredible players, Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid and Lionel Messi from Barcelona. If you can guess who will on the top perform next saturday, then you can guess which one will win the game and that means the time for you to bet on sports.

You can see how these two top scorer of their club compete to be the best player in Spanish La Liga from their goals, so far Lionel Messi has collected 29 goals, one ahead of Ronaldo, and become the top scorer of the league. According to this video below, I think it is not easy to guess is Ronaldo or Messi who will bring their club win El Clásico on the next saturday (April 16, 2011).


So prepare yourself and think smart to place your bet by logic and not by emotion. Just visit this Soccer Betting Guide if you like bet on soccer games but find a difficulty to win, it might help.

Larissa Riquelme, The Hottest Football Fan in The World

2011 Copa America is over but just like in 2010 FIFA World Cup was, we will never forget this hot paraguayan model and football fan, Larissa Riquelme. I am sure every men in the world will agree if we named this Paraguayan hot model as the hottest football fan in the world, not just because he has a fabulous body which is coveted by all women in the world but also for his fanaticism for her football national team, Paraguay.

You might want to read this related post also, Ow Crap! David Villa's Goal Saves Larissa Riquelme from Stripping.

These pictures below showed how she love her national team by watching and supporting Paraguay in the field, complete with a sexy clothes of course, which show her fabulous and hot body.









(Click to enlarge the pictures)


I am sure all men in the world became Paraguay fans and supported the team to win a champion that time when it was reported that Larissa vowed that she would run naked around the stadium if her national team become a champion. Unfortunately, Paraguay hasn't win a champion yet whether in 2010 FIFA World Cup or 2011 Copa America since Larissa appeared in the field and her pictures which held a cell phone with her busty breasts become popular.
In 2010 FIFA World Cup, Paraguay was beat by Spain for 1-0 in Quarter-finals as I have written in the related post above and by Uruguay for 3-0 in the final of 2011 Copa America.

Might be Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez are the most hated football player todays, because most of men still can't forget their goals which made Paraguay lose, so Larissa didn't have to fulfill her vow. That's all for Larissa Riquelme, the hottest football fan in the world. Hope you enjoy it!

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and His Taekwondo Black-Belt

AC Milan's striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, is not just proficient in football. He also has a taekwondo black-belt that he received in the age of 17 from Malmö Taekwondo club, Enighet. Recently, Ibra also received an honorary black-belt from Italian taekwondo team.

Did they give the belt to mock Ibrahimovic beacuse of his bad behavior? The Swedish striker is well known for his preference of attacking his own teammates. This season only, he already involved in a fight with Oguchi Onyewu, during AC Milan training session. Just a while before, he kicked Rodney Strasser from behind and acted like nothing happened. Recently, during AC Milan vs Palermo match, he tried to kicked the ball from Robinho's belly, when the Brazilian celebrated his goal by acting like a pregnant woman.





Apparently, that's not the case. Italian taekwondo team gave the belt purely because of Zlatan Ibrahimovic skill in this martial arts. He also chosen as an icon to promotes taekwondo world championship that going to be held at Florence next week.

Ibra is honored to received the belt. Ironically, just a day after, he practices his kicking skill to Marco Materazzi during Milano derby.

Worst Miss of The Century in Football

Only ten year entering the 21st century, but people already vote for the worst (or greatest?) miss in the football history. Well, because this miss is done in MLS (Major League Soccer - America) match, I should say it the worst miss of the century in soccer history.

In April 24, 2010, when Kansas City Wizards played against LA Galaxy, Wizards' midfielder Davy Arnaud succeeded in fooled Galaxy's goalie, but the ball was hitting the side post and bounce back. Arnaud's teammate Kei Kamara was standing free in front of the goal, and he tried to tackled thee ball into the net.

The ball went in, the crowds were cheering, and Kamara thought he scored a goal. But the referee disallowed it. The Sierra Leone striker tried to protest and convinced the referee that he did nothing wrong.




Later from the replay, it looks clear that Kamara missed the ball with his feet, instead he scored with his hand!

Well, soccer might not yet become too popular in U.S, but this video was. Million of spectators around the world has been watched the game footage from youtube, and Kamara suddenly became a famous player. Well, good thing for him, because no way he will become famous and plays in the World Cup because of his skill.

Marta Vieira da Silva is Woman's Ambassador for Fighting Poverty

Marta Vieira da Silva is the best woman footballer in the world, proven by her four consecutive FIFA Women's World Player of the Year (2006-2009) awards. That's one of the reasons why Marta was recruited by the U.N. Development Program to advocate for women's empowerment as part of a global strategy to fight poverty.

"Marta is a role model for women and girls around the world, and I have no doubt that just as she has inspired them to play (football) so will she inspire others to come together in achievement of the Millennium Development Goals," said Helen Clark, the program's administrator.



Brazilian Marta Vieira da Silva was appointed goodwill ambassador in Stockholm, Sweden, on October 11, 2010.


The U.N. Development Program (UNDP) "works around the world making a positive difference in people's lives and I am proud to add my personal commitment to its work," said the FC Gold Pride's forward. "We all need to contribute to help defeat poverty."

It was in Sweden where Marta’s career flourished, scoring an outstanding 111 goals in 103 appearances between 2004 and 2008. During her time playing for her Swedish club, Umeå IK, the 24-year-old was named the top scorer for 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2008.

In 2007, fellow football players Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane invited her to play in UNDP’s Match Against Poverty in Fez, Morocco, where she became the first woman in the history of football to play in an internationally-sanctioned men’s football match.


Among UNDP’s other Goodwill Ambassadors are soccer stars Ronaldo, Zidane, and Didier Drogba, Japanese actress Misako Konno, Crown Prince Haakon Magnus of Norway, Russian tennis star Maria Sharapova, and Spanish actor Antonio Banderas.

English Football Players and Sex Scandals

Recognize these pretty faces below? And do you see something wrong with them? Of course not, because they all are nearly perfect for most of us. But why Abigail Clancy, Toni Poole, Elen Rives, and Cheryl Tweedy had to experiencing the bitterness of being cheated by English National Football Players?

Well, the answer is quite simple. Because these idiots who cheated from them: Peter Crouch, John Terry, Frank Lampard, and Ashley Cole, they all want to having sex with other women for fun, but in the other hand they don't want to break up from their WAG's in the name of love.

The beauties, from left: Abbey Clancy, Toni Poole, Elen Rives, and Cheryl Tweedy


The idiots, from left: Peter Crouch, John Terry, Frank Lampard, Ashley Cole


This is the quick resume of their scandals:

1. Peter Crouch cheated from his fiancee, Abbey Clancy, with some hooker named Monica Mint in July 2010.
Result: Clancy was furious and Crouch asked for forgiveness, let's wait...

2. John Terry cheated from his wife, Toni Poole, with his wife's best friend, Vanessa Peroncel in September 2009.
Result: Terry was removed as English captain, and Toni decided to gave him "one last chance".

3. Frank Lampard left his ex-fiancee who given him two daughters, Elen Rives, for a millionaire's daughter Saskia Boxford in February 2009.
Result: Rives making a lot of money from Lampard as a "setlement fees" for their daughters, and Lampard was moving on, since October 2009 he dating presenter Christine Bleakley.

4. Ashley Cole cheated from his wife, Cheryl Tweedy, with hairdresser Aimee Walton in 2008. Over the next two years, another five women admitted to having some form of relationship with the Chelsea footballer.
Result: Cheryl still gave Cole her forgiveness for the first time, but not in the second time. Their divorce is still in proggress at this moment.

Oh yeah, did I mention that these footballers are part of English National Team? Even their former skipper David Beckham once cheated from Victoria Beckham to some secretary named Rebecca Loos. Not to mention English striker, Jermaine Defoe, also have so many girls, from Danielle Lloyd, Chantelle Houghton, and Charlotte Mears.

And you still wondering why England never won any major tournament since 1966??
